How Do We Disclose the Data We Collect?

We may share your personal data with third parties, but only in the ways described in this privacy policy. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data, whether customer information or customer recipient data, without prior consent. However, we may disclose the information we collect or maintain, including personal data, without prior consent as described below:

  1. Affiliated Companies: We may disclose the information we collect about customers and potential customers to our affiliated companies. If we do, their use of your information will be in accordance with this privacy policy.

  2. Service Providers: We may disclose the information we collect from you to third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents who perform functions on our behalf, such as credit card processing, customer service, marketing analysis, online advertising management, customer relationship management, and internal system monitoring. These third parties are required to maintain the confidentiality, security, and integrity of personal data and to use such information only as directed by us.

  3. Business Transfers: If we are acquired by or merged with another company, if part or all of our assets are transferred to another company, or as part of a bankruptcy proceeding, we may transfer the personal data we have collected to the acquiring company or entity.

To Protect Gopien and Others: We may disclose the information we collect from you where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person, or violations of this policy, our terms & conditions, our anti-spam policy, or our end user service agreement.

Why Do You Receive Marketing Communications?

If you received one or more marketing or promotional emails, such as a newsletter from us, it means that (a) your email address is on our list of advertisers, site members, or prospective customers, or (b) you have provided us your email address so that we could contact you. If you believe you received an email from us in error, please contact us immediately at support@gopien.com.

What About Public Forums or Blogs?

Our site also offers publicly accessible blogs or community forums. You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas is visible to and may be read, collected, used, or disclosed by any visitor to the site. To request removal of your personal data from our blog or community forum, contact us at support@gopien.com. Please note that, even after removal from the site, certain content may remain in our systems for a period of time, or may be viewable in cached and archived pages of the site.

We may post customer testimonials on our website, which may contain personal data like the customer’s name and business. We obtain the customer’s consent via email prior to posting the testimonial to include their name along with their testimonial. To request removal of your personal data from our testimonials, contact us at support@gopien.com.

How Do We Secure the Personal Data We Collect?

We use commercially reasonable security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the personal data that we collect or maintain. Each customer is provided with a unique username and password that must be entered when logging into their account. However, no data security measures can guarantee 100% security all the time. While we strive to protect your data from unauthorized use or disclosure, Gopien does not warrant or guarantee the security of the data you provide to us.

The security of your personal data is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as a credit card number) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

What About Third-Party Websites?

Our site contains links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of any third-party websites. Customers and visitors who link to other third-party websites from our site should check the privacy and security policy statements of those websites to understand their policies and practices. Members and visitors who access a linked site may be disclosing their private information to the owner of such third-party websites. It is your responsibility to keep such information private and confidential.

How Can I Access My Information?

Upon request, Gopien will provide you with information about whether we hold any of your personal information. Members may access and amend the contact information and other account information we have collected from them by logging into their accounts and changing their account information. Additionally, individuals may request access to, modification, or deletion of any personal data we have collected about them by emailing support@gopien.com. We will respond to your access request within 30 days.

We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you with services, contact us at support@gopien.com. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, support our business operations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

We may also receive personal data about individual customer messages from or on behalf of Gopien’s members. We process personal data about customer message recipients only on behalf of and under the direction of our members, and the collection, use, and disclosure of such data is subject to the member’s privacy policy, not this one.

What About Children Under 13?

Our site and services are not intended to be used by children under 13 years old. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, we will remove it from our systems immediately.
